Ready to take an exhale?
Sixty minutes to pause, exhale, and reconnect with yourself. You'll learn how your breath actually works, why it changes your state faster than thinking does, and you'll practice it with us — right there on the call.
Come as you are. Cameras are off. All you need is a phone or laptop and somewhere to sit or lie down.

Stress isn't going anywhere. Your nervous system response is what can change.
Maybe you're stretched thin — running everyone else's logistics, sleeping less than you'd like, noticing your jaw is clenched before you've had coffee. Maybe you fall asleep fine and it's the middle of the night that gets you.
You've probably already tried things. Magnesium. A meditation app you opened four times. An article about keeping your bedroom at 65 degrees.
Most of those tools ask your mind to fix something that lives in your body. Breathing is the one exception — it's the only part of your autonomic nervous system you can take manual control of. That's not a metaphor. It's anatomy, and it's learnable in an hour.
Three things, and then we practice them together.
Your breath is the remote control to your nervous system
Of everything happening in your body right now, your breath is one of the only things you can consciously control — and using it on purpose shifts you out of fight-or-flight in real time. No equipment, no special setting.
The difference between mouth breathing and nose breathing
They do genuinely different things to your physiology, and most of us default to the one that keeps us wound up. Noses are for breathing. Mouths are for eating. We'll show you why that line isn't just a saying.
The three pillars of proper breathing
Nasal breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, and a slower respiratory rate — and how to tell, tonight, whether you're doing any of them.
Most of it is practice, not talking.
- 0–10 minWelcome, and a quick check-in on where your breath is right now
- 10–25 minThe mechanics — what should be moving when you breathe, and what almost certainly isn't
- 25–50 minGuided breathwork and meditation. You follow along with us, at your own level
- 50–60 minWhat changed, your questions, and how to keep the practice going this week
At the end we'll also share how to go deeper with us, if you'd like to. No pressure either way — the session stands on its own.
You'll feel it before the hour is over.
Most people notice something shift within the first ten minutes — the shoulders drop, the jaw unclenches, the breathing gets quieter without being told to. That's not relaxation for its own sake. That's your parasympathetic nervous system coming online.
What an hour actually does.
These are messages from the live chat on August 12th — how people arrived, and what they said thirty-nine minutes later. Same session. Same people. Their own words.
Live Breathwork Hour · August 12, 2026"Feeling anxious."
"I felt a suspension of the tension I'd been holding. A return to center."
Laura · New York, NY"Feeling open, feeling tense, and emotionally exhausted to be fully transparent."
"I had a sensation of melting."
O'den Robertson · Upstate NY"I was surprised by how quickly I got into a very deep state of relaxation."
Sarah · Brooklyn, NY"What came up was to remember that I can look at and take the time to choose my options before I respond to a situation. I don't have to do everything immediately."
Amy · Terranuma community"Just seeing friendly faces in the middle of the workday is already decreasing stress."
Ahmed · Terranuma communityWhat changed for them.
"After just a few weeks of these sessions, I feel so much better able to handle my anxiety instead of getting hijacked by it. What you've put together has been truly life-changing for me — I'm better able to roll with the punches, make healthier choices, and feel more grounded in my daily life."
Linda H.Breathe and Be cohort · January 2026"I go back and listen to our sessions and do the breathing. If I'm starting to feel something, I'm like, alright, do your box breathing, girl. Those things are absolutely incorporated into my life."
Marisa C.Connecticut · Breathe and Be cohorts, 2026"Thank you for the free breathwork shops — I will make as many as I can. They do me SOOOOOOOO much good."
Amy S.Terranuma client"Michael and Kathy provided an amazing space and created an environment of trust and love. I would do this again without a doubt and I feel very safe recommending it to anyone."

Kathy and Mike.
We're not clinicians. We're parents, spouses and business partners who built this out of what actually works in the moment — not in theory, not on a retreat, but on a Tuesday when everyone needs something from you at once.
Mike trained in the Wim Hof Method with Wim Hof, in Oxygen Advantage with Patrick McKeown, and in XPT Performance Breathing with Laird Hamilton and Gabby Reece. Kathy spent fourteen years teaching in New York City public schools.
We'll give you honest answers rather than comfortable ones, and we'll explain the why behind every technique instead of handing you a protocol.
Everything you might be wondering.

Don't let it take your exhale.
Noses are for breathing, mouths are for eating — and we'd love to show you the rest. Sixty minutes, live, this Wednesday.
